You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1695

Chapter 1695: Disregarding Everything

On the phone, Luther's concerned voice came through, tinged with a hint of anxiety. "Where are you? Mr. Arnold told me that you and Andres haven't returned home yet."

Joyce was taken aback. "Um, I..."

Hearing her voice, Luther's emotions seemed to calm down. "I saw the news bulletin. There was a shooting incident in the city center. A mysterious woman repelled several criminals. You haven't come back yet. Could it be related to you?"

Joyce couldn't help but feel exasperated by how well Luther knew her.

She cleared her throat, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Yes, it was me. Right now, I'm at Division Four giving a statement. I'll be back soon."

"What? It really was you. I was worried when I saw the news, but I didn't expect it to be true. Joyce, can't you be more careful? And where's Darrin? What was he doing at that time?"

Joyce had a black line on her face. Luther really knew her well.

She tried to explain, feeling a bit awkward. "Well, today Darrin had something to take care of and wasn't with me in the afternoon. We happened to encounter the situation, so I had no choice..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Luther interrupted her.

"You just stay put in the police station. I'm coming to get you. Don't take a single step away."

After saying that, Luther hung up the phone in a rush.

Joyce stared at her phone, which now emitted only a "beep" sound, and couldn't help but glance at her lips. She always seemed to end up in these situations, and she didn't want to. It was inevitable that Luther would complain when he arrived, but it was impossible to hide it from him after such a big incident.

Sure enough, just fifteen minutes later.

Luther hurriedly rushed into the police station from outside.

He pushed open the door and burst into the special reception room.

Joyce looked up at the sound, only to see Luther rushing towards her with quick steps. He was clearly anxious and couldn't hide it. She hadn't even had a chance to stand up before she was embraced tightly by the person rushing towards her.

He held her too tightly, too forcefully, to the point where she couldn't breathe.

She pushed him away. "I'm fine. Don't do this. There are other people around. They're all watching."

Darrin, Reuben, and the children were all there. Luther's embrace made her face turn red, even reddening her ears.

Anderson sat on the side, watching them intimately, and couldn't help but smile.

Darrin was used to it already. He stood there expressionless, pretending not to have seen anything.

Reuben saw this scene and awkwardly turned his face to the side. Was he invisible? Did he not exist? At the very least, pay some attention. Although he knew that Joyce and Luther had a deep emotional bond, seeing it with his own eyes was another matter.

He felt a twinge of jealousy.

Yes, it was jealousy. He envied Luther for having such a good wife and such adorable children.

Kiki looked at this scene in astonishment.

She tugged on Anderson's hand. "Is that your daddy? I'm so envious."

Her crystalline eyes flickered, and she pouted. "I don't have a daddy. I've never experienced it before. I'm so jealous."

Anderson finally glanced at Kiki.

He knew that Kiki didn't have a father because her mother became pregnant through artificial insemination. Many children at kindergarten knew that Kiki didn't have a father and often made fun of her.

Thinking back to his own experience of not having a father when he was young, Anderson felt a bit sympathetic towards Kiki.
